All three are variously between one and three decades older than their historical counterparts were at the time - even taking into account that the scene is depicted as taking place a couple of years later than it did in the book, the timeline of which Laura fudged by about a year.

At the end of the episode, Charles publicly berates Sterling and Harriet for their actions. Michael Landon was very vocal about his dislike for tabloids and the stories printed about his personal life, hence the premise of this episode.

Little House on the Prairie / int_1ef7232d	comment	Wild Child: Initially, the townspeople think Matthew Rogers, a young adolescent boy, is this. His A Day in the Limelight two-part episode is actually called "The Wild Boy." This is because when we first see him, a quack doctor has literally caged Matthew and billed him as a "wild boy of the North," a money-maker for his medicine show. In reality, the doctor is using a morphine-base elixir to control Matthew's moods and behavior. He is able to get away with this because Matthew is an orphan and cannot speak. Eventually though, Mr. Edwards takes Matthew in, and Laura teaches them both sign language. The second half of "The Wild Boy" is about Mr. Edwards fighting for permanent custody. He at first loses, but the judge has a Heelâ€“Face Turn.

She miscarried a year before that. Laura and Almanzo's unnamed newborn son dies suddenly during the night after becoming ill a few days before. (It is believed that he was conceived too soon after his parents recovered from diphtheria, causing his illness and death. Later the couple's hired handyman's infant dies and Laura and Almanzo attend the funeral. Laura later admits that the thing that really broke her heart was hearing the child's name being spoken due to never having the chance to name their own before he died. (The child's real life grave-marker reads Baby Son Wilder.) Laura and Mary's friend Ellen drowns while the three are swimming together. Albert has an implied death to leukemia on the cusp of adulthood. Poor Sylvia...

Many people who worked on Bonanza also went over to work on this show in its last years, such as William F. Claxton, John Hawkins, Arthur Heinemann, B. F. Sandfeur, and many other names. Furthermore, regular cast members Kevin Hagen and Dabbs Greer frequently appeared on the former series, and many guest stars on this series did as well. The show even owes its theme tune to an episode of Bonanza itself, borne from the soundtrack used in the seventeenth episode of Season 12, "Top Hand".

Little House on the Prairie / int_3149c4b0	type	It Will Never Catch On
Little House on the Prairie / int_3149c4b0	comment	It Will Never Catch On: Mrs. Oleson's view of a southern colonel's idea of opening a restaurant that only serves fried chicken. Interesting in that the colonel was supposed to strongly imply that this colonel was Colonel Sanders or at least that Mrs. Oleson was offered a chance to get in on the ground floor of a highly-successful restaurant idea, but she was too dumb/ignorant to realize it. Never mind that Colonel Sanders wasn't born until 1890 and that his idea only worked because of some clever marketing, a specific recipe, specific cooking techniques, and the fact that he could appeal to travelers who would otherwise not want to stop long enough to wait for chicken to cook (the cooking techniques took care of this problem). To be fair: Her outright refusal of the colonel's offer is very understandable given that she had just been released from an unreasonable contract with another operator of a chain of restaurants. Also, the colonel's "gimmick" is that only fried chicken will be served, and Mrs. Oleson's last venture was unsuccessful in part due to her customers wanting more variety than the three or four choices offered. If anything, the lesson of the day was more that having been "burned" by a bad experience can blind one to legitimate opportunities. Also, at the time the books and series are set, the concept of "restaurant" wouldn't have applied in a community that size. Outside of big cities, restaurants fell into two primary categories: saloons and workingmen's diners, or the Harvey House chain of railroad-station eating houses. The concept of a family restaurant would not come along for several decades.

Even though she's billed in the main credits as part of the main cast, she has a pathetic number of stories centered around her- one where she falls down a well and a 90-minute blunder. The twins who played her character were incapable of acting believably because neither one received lessons to become child actors- they were brought on as essentially a baby character who spouts cute things at random left in the episodes, who, despite growing up, never learned how to act. Heck, Jack the dog got more attention than her in the first four seasons he was still around, and he remains in the opening credits even after going to doggy Heaven.

Little House on the Prairie / int_3fe2b13f	comment	"Barn Burner", where Larabee uses the epithet several times in an episode framed around African American farmer Joe Kagan. First, the farmers form a cooperative and on Charles Ingalls' persuasion invite Kagan, over Larabee's strong objections; later, when Larabee is accused of setting Jonathan Garvey's barn on fire and could hang for his crime, Kagan serves on the jury. Ironically, Kagan (himself a victim of prejudice) is the only one who believes Larabee deserves the benefit of the doubt (creating a hung jury situation), and manages to continue his arguments long enough for Garvey's son, Andy, to admit he left a lighted lantern too close to the barn. Larabee is acquitted and upon finding out that Kagan fought for his rightful due process, doesn't even thank him. (Larabee made his final appearance in this episode, as it is soon revealed that he dies not long afterward, his family having left him and the townspeople shunning him.)

Little House on the Prairie / int_43a045de	comment	Dropped a Bridge on Him: Just about once a season, something disastrous will cruelly whack a character from the show. Even the pets and newborns. This show also loves to be exacting in how it kills off the spares. Surviving parties of widowed spouses will often die and sometimes drop off off-screen; for instance, through one line of dialogue in "Someone Please Love Me", we find out that Charles's father has now died, after his debut episode was about his wife, Charles's mother dying. Then the exact same thing happens to Papa Holbrook, Caroline's stepdad, when her mother dies so fast she doesn't even make it into the story beyond a posthumous flashback and we learn from Laura that Grandpa Holbrook will die two years from when they said goodbye to him after he became a successful author (this transpires during Season 6, so sometime within the time period of Season 8). Furthermore, there's the shocking discovery Albert makes in discovering his birth father Jeremy dropped dead on the farm in between their one and only meeting after he gave the boy up for adoption for personal reasons. And then there's Adam Kendall's father, whose death results in the end of plans to rebuild the blind school after it burned down because he racked up accumulating debts he never paid off, leading to the Kendalls relocating to Sleepy Eye.

Little House on the Prairie / int_479d4e5a	comment	Would Hurt a Child: Several episodes dealing with child abuse feature cutaways or adults punching a stunt double/mannequin/at the camera, with the child actor never taking any blows. One episode — "The Lost Ones" (featuring Jason Bateman in one of his first regular roles) — saw Bateman's character, James Cooper, beaten off-screen, although his screams as he took a whip were heard as his sister, Cassandra, cries. (James and Cassandra had been sent to live with a hard-hearted farmer, and James had been framed by the farmer's biological son for stealing.) "Sylvia" is a non-stop Trauma Conga Line for the titular helpless little girl which culminates in her death. The Season 8 finale "He Was Only Twelve" kicks off when Jason gets shot just after his twelfth birthday and Charles and Isaiah go on a manhunt for the criminal gang responsible to make them pay. Then, Charles goes on a religious pilgrimage/faith quest to save his dying son's life. It's a heavy retooling of a bleaker story from Bonanza entitled "He Was Only Seven", where the child in question was younger, a grandson instead of a son, actually died from being shot, and it was only an hour-long one-off story.

In the case of the train, obviously, it costs a lot to keep a vintage train engine operating and to perform its upkeep over a decade, and many times, the series will disguise the fact that only one train is in use because they can't afford another. In fact, the one train being used in "The Runaway Caboose" doubles as both the freight train and a passenger train later, even though the narratives pretend it's actually two separate trains.

Sylvia (Olivia Barash) is a beautiful but mature-for-her-age 14-year-old girl who endures hell after hell throughout her stay in Walnut Grove. She is sexually harassed by the boys at school, viciously raped by a masked man (and impregnated as a result), emotionally abused by her distant father (who also forces her to conceal her adolescent development) ... and then scandalized by Mrs. Oleson when Harriet spreads the rumor that Albert Ingalls is her baby's father. Albert seems to be her only friend, but even his parents are concerned that his association with her will bring nothing but trouble. In the end, Sylvia dies, her fatal last incident coming when she falls from a rickety ladder in a ramshackle barn to escape the rapist the town blacksmith who had come back to violate her again.

Little House on the Prairie / int_56515a39	type	Artistic License â€“ History
Little House on the Prairie / int_56515a39	comment	Artistic License â€“ History: One episode has a woman visit Walnut Grove to campaign for equal property rights for married women. The problem is that Minnesota already had property rights for married women as of 1869, and this episode is set in the 1880s. Another episode set in 1886 features a guest lecture from Ralph Waldo Emerson. There are two problems with this: First, Emerson stopped making public appearances after 1879 due to declining health. Secondly, he died in 1882. Generally speaking, the series takes many liberties with the actual lives of the Ingalls family. Mary Ingalls, for example, never married, so the character of Adam is entirely fictional. Likewise, Albert never existed in real life. Also, the real Ingalls family moved around a lot, while the fictional family rarely left Walnut Grove outside of the pilot movie and occasional trip or temporary relocation. "Going Home" has an elderly couple trying to buy the Ingalls farm because they lived on it 40 years earlier (roughly 1836 since other episodes in that season are set in 1876). This is extremely unlikely in real life since Minnesota had very few settlers as late as 1848, and Walnut Grove itself wasn't established until 1870.

However, Albert does trying smoking a pipe again, with much more dire consequences; this comes in the 1980 episode "May We Make Them Proud," where Albert and a friend sneak into the basement of the School for the Blind to smoke, are shooed out and in haste, stuff a still-burning pipe in a box of towels. Later that night, the fire spreads to the upstairs, and ultimately traps and kills Alice Garvey (mother of Albert's best friend, Andy) and baby Adam Kendall (son of Mary and Adam Kendall).

Little House on the Prairie / int_754df088	comment	Put on a Bus: Mr. Edwards and his family after Season 3, not reappearing till Season 6 and then returning in Season 8 on his own with his wife explaining they have separated due to a relapse into alcoholism. Ebenezer Sprague, Walnut Grove's short-tenured banker, was introduced in season 2 as one of the new townsfolk, but he seldom appeared after his debut episode. He makes one last appearance in season 3 before quietly leaving the town. During the episode "To Live With Fear", Charles tries to go to Sprague for help, but Mr. Edwards tells Charles that Sprague pulled out of Walnut Grove because his bank wasn't getting enough business due to a bad year of crops. But then he apparently came back and gave it another go off-screen, before leaving for good in Season 4 when the town of Walnut Grove goes bankrupt. Eva Beadle-Simms who leaves at the same time the town goes bankrupt. Nellie and Mary in the opener of Season 8. Mary is even edited out of the opening of the show. Carrie, the Cooper children, and Grace at the start of Season 9, as well as Caroline. Only Caroline returns. Harriet Oleson during the post-series specials, who is said to have gone to visit relatives at first, then forced to delay her return to Walnut Grove after being stricken ill and remains in their care; her actor Katherine MacGregor declined to return for any of these specials. Some people may be thankful for the fact her hateful shrew of a character is absent, while others will realize that her husband essentially ensured she has no place to come back to in the finale and will lament her absence to try and vividly protest these events.

Little House on the Prairie / int_7815ba15	type	N-Word Privileges
Little House on the Prairie / int_7815ba15	comment	N-Word Privileges: The word "nigger" is used outright in at least three episodes, each dealing with racism. These include: "The Wisdom Of Solomon", where a young African American boy named Solomon remarks to his classmates what he hates about being black: "Being called a nigger." (The other children are shown registering devastated reactions to such a horrific word.) "Blind Journey", a two-part episode depicting a journey students and staff of the School of the Blind take from Winoka to Mr. Hanson's old house near Walnut Grove; although Mrs. Oleson is revealed to be strongly bigoted with hints of racism (revealed in her disappointment over African American teacher's aide Hester Sue Terhune (1950s pop vocalist Ketty Lester) not being an elite social lady), even she never utters the n-word (in fact, Harriet has a change of heart during the trip and comes to view the black children in a positive light). This is left to racist farmer Judd Larabee (Don Barry, the former title hero in the "Red Ryder" westerns) when he sees the Ingalls and other Blind School folks treating Hester Sue as a friend. "Barn Burner", where Larabee uses the epithet several times in an episode framed around African American farmer Joe Kagan. First, the farmers form a cooperative and on Charles Ingalls' persuasion invite Kagan, over Larabee's strong objections; later, when Larabee is accused of setting Jonathan Garvey's barn on fire and could hang for his crime, Kagan serves on the jury. Ironically, Kagan (himself a victim of prejudice) is the only one who believes Larabee deserves the benefit of the doubt (creating a hung jury situation), and manages to continue his arguments long enough for Garvey's son, Andy, to admit he left a lighted lantern too close to the barn. Larabee is acquitted and upon finding out that Kagan fought for his rightful due process, doesn't even thank him. (Larabee made his final appearance in this episode, as it is soon revealed that he dies not long afterward, his family having left him and the townspeople shunning him.) "Dark Sage" where a black doctor named Caleb Ledoux arrives at Walnut Grove and can't find work because of his skin color. A racist farmer won't let the doctor treat his wife, despite her needing medical attention and calls Dr. Caleb the epithet. Charles Ingalls decks the man so that Dr. Caleb can do his job. Caleb ends up saving the farmer's wife and baby by performing an emergency Cesarean section, something no one else in the town, even Hiram Baker, the regular doctor who believed medicine belonged to the white man, could do. The farmer is heavily chastised for being willing to let his wife and baby die before accepting help from a black man.

Little House on the Prairie / int_8288929a	comment	Rewarded as a Traitor Deserves: Coupled with Bus Crash and Put on a Bus to Hell. John Sanderson Jr. cheated on Mary in Season 4. In Season 8, episode 8 ("Chicago"), John Jr. is killed in a street accident at 10:30 A.M. right on the verge of his graduation, never to live out his dreams of being a professional writer, while Mary is now Happily Married to her One True Love Adam Kendall. The initial believed cause? He fell into oncoming traffic after slipping on a road that got muddy on a rainy day because some fool did a poor job building it and the pavement was destroyed. And then to make things worse, his graduation present, a watch with his initials engraved inside, got stolen off his body by some petty child crook. The real reason? A company owner named Alderman Hendricks was performing fraud after fraud with "necessary" road construction. His muscle, Drummond, killed him by bashing in his head in an alley because his boss put him on an assignment to search for why the pavement in question was being torn up and streets that didn't need fixing were being fixed. It was all to make money off of extra construction contracts. Drummond himself got killed when he fell to his death slipping on roadwork and broke his neck in the process. All in all, "Johnny" still died doing what he loved, but it's a disaster which sends his adoptive father Isaiah into an alcoholic relapse and later destroys his marriage to Grace. What makes it even sadder is this is the second time poor Isaiah has lost a child. Arguably, also the fate of Jeremy Quinn, who wanted nothing to do with his biological son and apparently fell over dead on his homestead sometime later. A humorous example occurs in Season 8, episode 8, "The Legend of Black Jake", when Nels is kidnapped by two bumbling crooks and stingy Harriet refuses to pay a $100 ransom note, so Nels decides to get revenge by helping the duo as their extraneous third member and hooded mastermind, "Black Jake", kidnapping Harriet and pretending to be a ghost to make her think she's having a nightmare and will pay for abandoning him. A villainous example and heroic example collide in "He Was Only Twelve". The leader's decision to leave a man's brother to die after being shot reveals he didn't want the other brother involved with the gang because he was too soft. The surviving brother tries to exact revenge, but then he gets shot in return by a gang member who's lost patience with him, who is then shot down by Isaiah in return.

Every episode seems to be prone to a One-Shot Character who we're made to feel sorry for because something screwed up their life, whom we never see again afterward; the dialogue will usually depict them as long-time intimate friends of the regular cast, too. This is forgivable given that the setting is place where making a living is incredibly tough, people die all the time, and move away when they can't make it or want to move on, and the setting is big enough that people who we longer see are likely living up over yonder out of sight and out of mind, so one can only assume that at least one of these things is behind their disappearances.

Inverted in "Dearest Albert, I'll Miss You" when Albert's pen pal, Leslie, hides the fact that she uses a wheelchair from Albert.

Little House on the Prairie / int_ab5eea65	comment	Dramatic Irony: In Season 5, Adam Kendall reveals he lost his sight after taking a spill in a river and conking his head on rocks, causing a concussion that compressed the area around his eyes and made them incapable of functioning. That season also plays with the possibility Mary is regaining her sight but it's a fluke, and Adam seems to be a little jealous, while the couple contemplates what would happen if Adam were the one to regain his sight. Two seasons later, Adam takes a spill while feeling his way around a cluttered storage shed, knocking over some crates of nitroglycerin that were just placed inside while he stepped out. He has no way of knowing they've been placed there and assumes his path is clear. He crashes into them and spills the stock, and the resulting explosion blows out the entire side of the building... and hits him with enough force to concuss him again, undoing the compression and restoring his sight, allowing him to resume his original plans to become a lawyer while Mary has to deal with the resulting jealousy.

He replies that, while he was scared and angry at first, what's important is to make and have good memories that you can look back on. Everyone is moved to tears after his speech, especially Nancy. Season 7's "Sylvia" saw Albert's heated argument with Charles over Albert's intention to quit school and marry a young girl who is pregnant by rape. Charles argues that Albert couldn't possibly love Sylvia's child as it deserves because it wouldn't be his own, and Albert retorts that Charles asserted many times that he loved Albert like his own, despite he himself being adopted. Charles is rendered nearly speechless.

Little House on the Prairie / int_b06bbf4b	comment	Be Careful What You Wish For: When Charles Ingalls Jr. was born, Laura gets jealous of him and essentially wishes he didn't exist, refusing to bless him. He dies only days later. Then, just to twist the knife and give her a taste of her own medicine, Laura (as an adult) herself has a baby boy, who dies so abruptly that she doesn't even get to name him. In fact, Laura's sin seems to implant a Biblical-esque curse that trickles down to every male firstborn in the Ingalls family, as Mary's own child is incinerated in a fire, and Albert, the oldest adopted boy, dies from leukemia (it's implied, but the episode ends on a Hope Spot to avoid being too relentlessly sad). Even James is nearly killed because he was the firstborn male of the Cooper family, but Charles breaks the curse through faith (and, heavily implied, having his own lifespan severely reduced to restore James given his hair in the next episode and especially in future appearances).

James and Cassandra, the orphans Ma and Pa adopt later in the series, briefly lived with an abusive guardian. Albert's nightmares soon after his adoption imply he suffered abuse at a city orphanage. Horribly so in "Sylvia", where the titular character's father turns against her and becomes monstrously overprotective after she gets raped. It's even implied she was a wife-killing childbirth because her father remarks that she has the same "devil" in her that killed her ma, making her The Unfavorite. Naturally, his abuse leads to her death as well and now he gets to die alone.

Little House on the Prairie / int_b15b6a35	comment	Cosmic Plaything: The Ingalls family in general, but especially Albert: He spends much of his early life being regularly abused in orphanages until he runs away, eventually ending up in Winoka and barely survives by being a thief. Charles gets him to come with the rest of his family to Walnut Grove, where early on he's cruelly picked on (and beat up) by others for being a "bastard". And when Charles goes to legally adopt Albert, Jeremy Quinn, his biological father shows up and wants to take him in as a farmhand, and has no intent of treating like a son, nor does he even have a wife anymore, if ever at all (meaning Albert really could be a bastard). Luckily, he escapes that by feigning blindness to his father and gets adopted by Charles. Some time later he's partially responsible for the deaths of Mary's son and Alice Garvey by, along with another boy, accidentally burning down the blind school with a lit pipe. He has so much guilt that he decides to run away and go to his biological father, only to discover he's dead, having unexpectedly kicked the bucket since they last met, a final kick to the teeth. Charles finds him and convinces him to come back home. He falls in love with Sylvia, who gets horribly raped and then pregnant by the town's blacksmith, and plans to run away with her. She gets fatally injured when trying to get away from said rapist and later dies. Years later he gets addicted to morphine, becoming almost an entirely different person, but manages to break the habit before it completely destroys him. Just when you think things are finally looking up for him, he's found to be terminally ill with leukemia right after finding out he received a full scholarship to medical school. So he goes back to Walnut Grove to spend his last days, and presumably dies not long after. Mary didn't fare much better. She loses her sight and later gets false hope that it might come back, loses her first baby to a miscarriage, her second to a devastating fire (caused by Albert in the aforementioned incident), and her husband Adam gets his sight back, initially making her feel alienated. Unlike Albert or Laura, who both did and said horrible things in the series, she did absolutely nothing to deserve the things that happened to her.

Little House on the Prairie / int_b8e3f20a	comment	Demoted to Extra: Carrie went from having several lines an episode and even a few small subplots to a background character who was lucky to get one line per episode. Carrie was essentially a mute well before the Ingalls family left Walnut Grove. As the actresses grew, neither bothered to learn to act, so they quit giving her lines because they didn't want to kill the character off. Her delivery was also infamously unclear, and TV Land would do a joke spot years later: "Thank you, Carrie Ingalls, for whatever it was you just said." Carrie had one episode that focused on her (a 90-minute one at that, "The Godsister"). She was never focused on again afterwards, likely due to said lack of acting skills that were painfully apparent in that episode. The other one, arguably, was "Little Girl Lost", in which she was stuck in a mine shaft for the whole of the episode and thus unable to communicate.

The Sanderson children are faced with separation when a family wants to adopt the boys as farmhands, while Harriet's wealthy cousin wishes to adopt little Alicia. At the last minute, Mr. Edwards and Grace Snider marry, and adopt all three. "The Silent Cry," from early in Season 7, saw Houston (the cantankerous landlord of the Harriet Oleson School for the Blind) make a successful attempt to adopt two orphaned brothers. Before the adoption takes place, the requisite drama sees numerous families want to adopt the older, stronger of the two boys, but not the younger one, a tiny boy who has multiple disabilities, including muteness. (The episode itself is a rewrite of a Bonanza script Michael Landon wrote late in that series' run; the major changes involve crossing out names and replacing them with newer ones.)

The onscreen scenery routinely featured Southern California-style mountains, trees, scrub-brush, chaparral, etc. You might find some people convinced the show took place in Kansas. This perception wasn't helped by the fact that the Wichita NBC station ran promos that stated the Ingalls were "Kansas' first family." Also, the pilot did take place in Kansas. Some viewers may have assumed they moved to a different part of Kansas rather than all the way back to Minnesota, especially after Charles bumps into Mr. Edwards again after only a few episodes.

Little House on the Prairie / int_e4b69188	type	Very Loosely Based on a True Story
Little House on the Prairie / int_e4b69188	comment	Very Loosely Based on a True Story: Generally, the setting of the series is condensed around Walnut Grove, Minnesota, which was only a nearby town to the main setting of the fourth book, Plum Creek. The events of the main series span the third through the eighth books of the series, with the pilot set largely in the third book, and A New Beginning largely set around the ninth book. Among the details: Charles and Caroline Ingalls never adopted sons. Their daughter Mary (who really did go blind) never married. (Visitors to the town cemetery to this day regularly misidentify the grave of Charles and Caroline's son, dead in infancy, as that of Mary Ingalls's fictional baby.) And Walnut Grove still exists today; it was never blown up.

Plus, Landon is always freshly shaven, even when he spends several days somewhere without a razor. The real Charles Ingalls wore a full beard.

Little House on the Prairie / int_ee2a3bfc	comment	Prefers Going Barefoot: Luke Simms never wears shoes because he just never really took a liking to them, first noted when Ms. Beadle accidentally steps on his bare toes. Harriet Oleson finds that repugnant when her daughter takes to courting a "barefoot bumpkin". None of the children at the school Mary taught prior to going blind wore shoes; all of them were always barefoot. The girl whose family she lived with even ditched her shoes anytime she went indoors (although it's pretty clear that the only reason she's seen with shoes during filming outside is for practical reasons, because it would obviously be painful to the untrained feet to walk across rocks and other junk barefooted).

Little House on the Prairie / int_ee7a60e9	comment	One-Steve Limit: Averted. Grace Snider Edwards is a significant regular character in the earliest seasons, even though she was original to the series and it was an established historical fact that the fourth daughter of Charles and Caroline Ingalls would also have to be named Grace if she was ever born on the show, which she eventually was late in season four. Strangely, an episode only a few earlier than Grace Ingalls' introduction revolved around the birth of another baby named Grace, and nothing is ever said to suggest that the Ingalls family connects that event with their choice of name shortly after.

Little House on the Prairie / int_f09b6509	comment	Last Episode, New Character: Sherwood Montague, who appeared in the very last episode of the original run, "Hello and Goodbye". It was clear he was not intended to be this, as the writers were clearly setting him up as a regular for the ill-fated tenth season in place of Matthew (as in hello, Sherwood and goodbye, Matthew). Little House flagged in the ratings and got cancelled, thus resulting in the movie continuations to finish up the series, and Sherwood appeared in all three of the follow-up movies. Rachel Brown also qualifies as this, since she marries Willie in the penultimate regular episode and was never seen before this, but remains a major character in the final episodes to follow this one.

Little House on the Prairie / int_f9c3ecc6	comment	Series Fauxnale: The last episode of season four was intended to wrap things up, since Michael Landon and Co. didn't know if the show would return for season five. note (NBC had two "innovative" series under development, Supertrain- a phenomenally over-budget pilot that went down in infamy- and Cliff Hangers, and some reports had it that the network, in desperate need of a grand-slam hit, was wagering its very existence on the success of what executives hoped would be their cornerstone shows.) It's interesting that the fauxnale focused on Mary, instead of Laura, who is ostensibly the main character.

She's later seen sitting up overnight rubbing the frostbitten feet of other people's children right along with the other mothers and even cuddling them with her body heat in their sleep, even though her own children were the only ones who were never endangered and hers is the only family that could easily get back to the comfort of their own home for the night.
